Dale Spencer, WYLD FM 98 New Orleans | October 1987
We know very little about this station except that from research it appears that the AM flipped to Christian programming at some time after this recording. This sounds like an Urban AC formatted station. Someone who remembers may be able to better fill us in on the details. We did manage to find a station…
QuickCheck: Morning show, AM 990 WYAT New Orleans | October 1987
They don’t say their names, but this is a funny break from the WYAT morning show… funny because they play the Contours a second time (someone forgot to remove the already played cart!), then the whole show goes downhill from there! Talkabout screwing up your concentration! You get one break, worth about 2 and a…
The Ed Clancy Show on WTIX AM 690 New Orleans | October 1987
Here’s an 8 minute helping of the Ed Clancy Show on WTIX. Now, this is not from the Top 40 era, but they did play music as this was the station’s Oldies incarnation. Not bad for it’s time, and Ed Clancy is very entertaining, but with the big FMs doing music better than TIX can…
PM Drive on 99-5 WRNO “The Rock” | October 1987
(Comments by Steve West) Remember back in the days when WRNO transmit (sometimes) a simulcast of its FM rock station on Shortwave? I still remember the frequency. 15.420 Megahertz. Sometimes Hard Rock, sometimes Top 40 (I heard Casey Casem on it one time), sometimes religion especially towards the end of it’s life, and for about…
Ben Cooper in the Morning, WEZB New Orleans’ Power Station B-97 | October 1987
Man there was some good radio in Nawleans! Listening to this recording, you notice the JAM jingles which were in common use at so many CHR stations. You also hear Cammie McCormick doing sidekick/news duties (she went on to be a CBS radio news anchor), and a promo done by our site friend Alan Beebe!…
John O’Brien; The “Memorial Day 500”, 102.1 WAQY Springfield | May 24, 1987
An original recording from Webmaster Steve West, here’s John O’Brien (WCCC, Bax & O’Brien WAQY Morning Show) counting down the biggest songs of the Classic Rock era. Packaged as the Memorial Day 500, WAQY attempted to capitalize on Nascar’s Indy 500 stock car race.. and it worked, as far as I could see at the…
MicroChexx: Jim Kaye, 102.1 WAQY Springfield | May 24, 1987
At only ONE talk break, here’s the shortest aircheck on our site. A short bit of background on this, although I’m sure we’ll get more details from the subject himself, this is a recording of Jim Kaye’s “Gold Rush” show that ran on WAQY in the early years as, first, an AOR, then Classic Rock…
Steve Edwards, KHLT Little Rock | 1987
Here’s Steve Edwards’ morning show on AC KHLT, known on air back then as K-Lite. Note the wide variety of music, although we don’t get a true feel for the rest of the day’s programming. We do get a News and Traffic update along with a weather forecast for the Little Rock area. This is…
